Question: Why does medvedev not have a country by his name?
I assume you are asking about the tennis player Daniil Medvedev, who is currently ranked number one in the world. Medvedev does not have a country by his name because he is from Russia, and Russia is banned from international sports events due to its invasion of Ukraine. The International Tennis Federation (ITF) decided to prohibit athletes from Russia and Belarus from playing under the name or flag of their countries in 2022. This means that Medvedev and other Russian/Belarusian players, such as Aryna Sabalenka, have to compete as neutral participants without any national symbols.
Medvedev has said that he wants to play tennis and promote his sport, regardless of the political situation. He has also expressed his desire for peace in the world. He has not changed his allegiance to another country, although he was once approached by the Tennis Federation of Kazakhstan in 2021. For now, he is a free agent who competes for himself.
